This is an old message so hope you are still following. My great-grandmother was Isabella (Bella) Newell nee Armstrong. Her brother John Armstrong lived in Provost. Her mother was Sarah Armstrong and her father was Samuel Armstrong. Samuel and Sarah had a large family, with about half succumbing to the 1919 flu outbreak. Isabella and her husband, William, were married for about 70 years.
My grandmother was Winnifred Hazel Svenson nee Newell. Born in 1902. In one of her letters she states, "Clarence and Mabel (Hicks) spent their summers with us after their mother died". All of Isabella's children except Lawrence had her brothers or sisters names included in there given names.
I am still trying to put together this part of the family. If you feel this may be a match, I can be emailed at:
